Okay so this is really bad because I have no influence at all on people using crossposter tools. When this is going to be the new default I might just go completely private again.
I am here for a reason and I am finally able to feel free to write more stuff again. This is not working, when I have to be afraid that every toot could be boosted to birdsite. Nope nope nope
Okay please don't crossboost ^^ my toots over to the birdsite.
I will try to think of tooting more private that public toots but I just don't want this to happen all the time now.
It's kind of like people on birdsite tweeting facebook links all the time. You can do that but I might not follow you then.
I have no problem to read bridsite - masto crossposts. Except all the birdsite retweets... They are spamming the TL and you can't turn them off like directly on birdsite.
Would be cool to maybe automatically use the CW feature for RTs but I'm not sure. Maybe completely turn off RTs in the crossposter tools, that would be nice.

We could use a Vietnamese interpreter for Tipsy's parents. We would prefer someone in the LGBT community. Any volunteers would be lovely

I guess, too, if you want this shirt, you can sign up to get Cotton Bureau to do another printing: https://cottonbureau.com/products/let-trans-women-live
Profits go to Trans Lifeline.

maple classic™ 
what are some games where you can play as anthro squirrels other than furcadia and second life
There seems to be an DIY open source #BCI (brain computer interface) scene.
Oh and the read/write speed is apparently doubling every 15 months (Moore's law?).
We should be at approximately 128 bits/min now
Reading from and writing to the human brain directly, like with a hard disk. In 2012 the reading speed was about 8 bits/minute.
The lecturer just went from basic EEG to some monkey experiment to brain-computer-interfaces 👾

Idea for a new hobby:
Collecting network packet capture (pcap) traces from interesting/"fun" network environments. :3
In the same way other people collect stamps or whatever.
"Look at this weird setup with multiple DHCP servers!"
"I've got one where the timings are totally off!"
... you could also trade them if you're comfortable. :D

If you've never made a packet capture trace before, here's how you can get started using Wireshark: https://www.howtogeek.com/104278/how-to-use-wireshark-to-capture-filter-and-inspect-packets/

Never got payed for coding, though.
Currently, I work in a #copyshop. A #CopyJob, if you will. 
I think I got the job in parts because I mentioned enjoying #bookbinding, like, as a hobby. For some reason, nobody there believed that. 🤷
So now I spend a considerably amount of worktime ... BINDING THINGS! 
💜
(Mostly coil/wire binding, but they have this #gluebinding machine... 😍 )
Anyway, so that's most of me, I guess.
Hi.

(Briefly thought about following some of my friends into studying #art professionally, but decided I lacked both consistent #style and #bullshitting ability necessary for that.
So instead I got into #programming, mostly in #python. I love coding weird stuff, like #procgen #zines or #bots that tell people how #queer a thing is and my hard disk is littered with projects that went nowhere.
(Like I still have a couple gigs of GG tweets I wanted to analyze using #SocialNetworkAnalysis.)

I don't know if I ever did an #introduction post on here, so here's one:
Hi, I'm Minx and I'm a #queer #bisexual #dad. I have #depression and #anxiety-issues, which tends to make me less-than-social and low #spoons. (But I started working on those, so yay!)
People describe me as #reallychill but I'm actually #screaminginside. 😆
I love #notebooks, #fountainpens, #dippens and pretty much anything to do with #paper. (#BOOKS!!! )
There are still traces of #art schooling in me, I guess.
I can deal with a lot, but people on here taking it out on each other... I'm off for today.
suicide, shaming people for selfcare
People are blaming other people on here right now for taking care of themselves? For protecting themselves?
I get there are a lot of deep feelings involved, especially for those of you who knew the person that died.
You still can't force your words or feelings on people who can't or don't want to deal with it.
Blocking / muting / asking for CWs is not a bad thing. Please don't shame people for that. Just try to remember to CW even if you forget sometimes.
